That was a couple years ago.
I'll ask at the next event.

Wo...so that means a stock 2008 Lotus Elise and stock 2008 Focus are in the same class?

LOL, and the elise won...
We tried to keep things as simple as possible and will work on it over the winter.
It was set up for fun which everyone had and no complaints. But do realize we need to sit down with the scca book and break things down better

the problem with things the way they are right now we can't charge anything more than to cover costs of trophies and such. the city won't alow any type of profit since they are supplying cones and a few other things. we may charge a little more next time to help purchase some things but one thing we dont want to do is become a formal organization yet. We enjoy the way things are when we can all voice whats needed and noone is in charge per say.
over the winter we will most likely become formal as a non profit.
I am also purchasing some timing equipment soon if we can use lap timing equipment but not positive and waiting on some answers right now.

one thing you can do to fund the purchase of timing lights is to become an organization and start charging yearly memberships. or tack on a "timing light" fee to your event fee.

lol, we're having another soon. Have to round up some insurance quotes first tho. Then cones... (anyone know where to get some cheap? (besides construction areas) they're about 6 bucks apiece. and do we need 12" or 18"?
Oh, and we've now formed a new car club in town. Blacksheep CC

Right now the results aren't posted yet. We are in the process of creating a new website. We also formed a new car club also.
Whats great is we have a couple businesses backing us now to help fund things. We're trying to keep this from becoming an"organization" and just a group of enthusiasts. But we may have to take the organizational approach later. One business is going to donate some cones and a storage area for us to use.

Road Trip!
Well, I wish...
September is booked solid for us.

Sounds like you came up with some different classes?

had a couple people from rapid city, north dakota, minnesota, that I can think of.
I'm looking for some lights now. hopefully I can find some used ones fairly cheap.
It sounds like we'll have anouther in a few weeks again, hopefully the whole lot this time.
Was actually pretty cool, I'd forgotten the local radio station was there announcing all day too.
